Introducing Drupal Commons 3.0!

Today we launched Drupal Commons 3.0, a flagship release of Acquia's social business software solution now available for Drupal 7. This release builds on Acquia's OpenWEM initiative offering a set of customer experience solutions built on the open, unified Drupal platform for content, community, and commerce.

We believe this is a significant milestone in the evolution of both Drupal Commons and the greater Social Business Software market. We've already received excellent feedback from both partners and customers throughout our beta program and look forward to helping organizations gain value from the solution. Whether that's getting products to market faster, improving employee productivity, building greater customer advocacy, or even infusing social strategies into customer service and social shopping experiences. To dive right in, feel free to view a full slate of demo featurette videos or even download the new release and take it for a test drive here.

Beyond the intuitive new look and feel for better usability throughout the solution, we're excited to be releasing a host of great new features including:

Responsive design templates out of the box for creating optimized mobile community experiences fast.

An “active content” system that lets community members engage with popular content, based on comments, likes, and views, without manual moderation by community managers.

New groups capabilities that enable community members to join existing groups, or create their own. Members can follow or post content into open groups and quickly find content and participate in community, without additional page loads.

Advanced content moderation capabilities that improve community manager productivity by allowing members to report inappropriate content and even assign trusted members privileges to moderate and delete as needed.

If you're unsure whether Drupal Commons might be the right solution for your community needs, I've put together a couple of top 5 checklists to help evaluate if our solution might be the right fit for your organization.
